    Back to Hong Kong

    Wednesday, 13 December 2006 10:05 am

    Had a good day of meetings and presentations in Singapore yesterday. The end result of our hard work for the past 6 months.

    Singapore and Hong Kong are similar in many ways. But I think people in general in Singapore are more relaxed and less stressed than in Hong Kong. That’s probably culturally driven and not due to the economic reasons. Both cities are prosperous and both have the same need to re-invent itself when reliance on ports, trade and logistics reduces and economies become more service and knowledge work oriented.
    Singapore just has this nice Southeast Asian culture and mentality which makes people seem more friendly than in North Asian countries (at least to me).

    Having said that; I’m happy to go back to Hong Kong today.
